Generalized spectra of binary BCH codes

From MaRDI portal





This paper considers the generalized weight spectra of binary linear codes. The 1-spectrum is the standard Hamming weight spectrum without the zero element. MacWilliams type identities are established which relate the the spectra of a binary linear code and its dual. Using these identities, asymptotic expressions for elements of the \(r\)-spectrum of BCH codes of length \(2^m-1\) are determined when \(2t-1 < 2^{ \frac{m+1}{2}}\). The spectrum is given when \(r=2,t=2\) and \(m\) is odd. The spectrum for \(r=2,t=2\) and \(m\) even remains an open problem.
